Re: Prevent save button from submitting the form.

I usually do it like

<form onsubmit='<do submit code here>; return false' id='myForm'  ...>

<input type ='submit' onclick="$('#myForm').onsubmit(); return false;">

</form>

Re: Prevent save button from submitting the form.

If you meant how the submit button appears on the form is :
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
